Some props for a guy who sells on Facebook.

FB is obviously not for everyone, but personally, it has been a great venue for me, to hook up with old friends, send pics to family as well as friends, promote any bands I am in and a general way to connect. I don't own a cell phone, never have and never will and honestly, those are more intrusive on your privacy as the GOV can track you with that little addiction. Watching cell users walking around all day texting and not watching where they are walking......bumping into signs and poles, or worse, driving while texting or talking. Real safe. At least with FB and no cell, I can control who I talk to and when. Also being a musician like I mentioned, FB is a great way to let friends know when and where I have show. And now....another way to buy and sell bikes! Sweet! With all the friggin fees eBay charges 10%, any new way around that should be considered. Technology can be your friend or your foe, it all depends on how you use it. :o

I LIKE FB! I have many old friends across the county and we keep in touch this way.I did see a Dave Marko but I know the idiot on the Cabe cant be the same person.

Feebay has the audience and outreach is all . Not much else when it comes to backing and fairness . I did the book face thing to try alternatives .. Hehe

 

[Joe Hargis]

I have 97 people following now , all into bicycles .... and into parts / sellin / tradin / building / etc ..... RRB has over 201K followers too now , they had 194K when I joined a couple months ago . The doors / alternatives are opening ....

Yeah that's what I said for years with Nick pestering me to get a FB page, so I finally gave in a few weeks ago, and I admit it was fun to see what old friends were up to. I don't post a whole lot, mostly just read what's posted (some funny stuff!) but the coolest thing happened- a long lost relative had been searching for me for some time and found my FB page, needed to find me to tell me I had an inheritance coming! Not much, but what an awesome reward for finally doing the FB! Now I'm sure the house or truck will need a repair......

Joe, question for you- I had tried to set up a FB page to show Nick's bikes for sale, and somehow it knew I was trying to list a business, and it wouldn't allow me to continue, wanted me to do a "page" on his existing account. Yours is a profile, not a page right? Is that why you used a name like you did?
I did check out your profile, looks good!

I have had fantastic luck buying and selling on Facebook. With my own wall and my page. www.shbicyclestore.com. Now that I have a apple I pad touch with Instant video and photo chat linked to my Facebook. I can answer questions and send pic on my chat in second.

It took me a bit but , it's a business page through my personal profile .... and you can select 'just for fun' as an option on the business part when your going through it . I wasn't hep on the word 'business' either ! My personal page is pretty much just keepin up on gun talk , lol . Most call or text as far as friends to get ahold of me .... which is rare ....
